Overview of Payment Plans

Option A

No monthly fee

For up to 150,000 books, pay commission only with no monthly fees!

A commission of 12% on book price and shipping plus a payment processing fee if Biblio processes payment. (Note: there is a $40 maximum commission and a $0.25 cent closing fee per item sold)

For sellers with an average of more than 150,000 books, a monthly fee of $10 for the first 150,000 listings plus $3/month for each additional 100,000 listings applies.

On most other sites you have to sell 6-8 times as much as you do on Biblio to cover their monthly fees and make the cost of selling there even close to competitive with our fees!

Option B

Small monthly fee; lowest commission

An 8% commission on book price and shipping and a monthly fee (see below) plus a payment processing fee if Biblio processes payment. (Note: there is a $40 maximum commission and a $0.50 cent minimum commission per item sold.)

Plus, we have a listing fee rebate plan! If you have chosen Option B and receive no orders in a given month, we will rebate your monthly fees in BiblioBucks, which you can use to purchase books from other booksellers on Biblio!

You can choose either billing option, and Biblio will provide guidance as to the most cost effective option upon request. You can make plan changes at any time, and the new plan will be effective at the start of the next month.

3. Venue.

Biblio is a sales venue for books and ephemera and is not an auction or an auctioneer. The Website acts as a venue to allow Bookseller Members to offer, sell, and buy books and ephemera. Biblio has no control over the quality, safety or legality of the items advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings, the ability of sellers to sell items or the ability of buyers to pay for items. Biblio cannot ensure that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction. Biblio does not transfer legal ownership of items from the seller to the buyer.

Because Biblio is a venue, in the event that you have a dispute with one or more users of the Website, you release Biblio (and Biblio's officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which states: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."

Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, Biblio does not control the information provided by other users that is made available through the Website. You may find other user's information to be offensive, harmful, inaccurate, or deceptive. Please note that there are risks of dealing with underage persons or people acting under false pretense. Additionally, there may also be risks dealing with international trade and foreign nationals. By using the Website, you agree to accept such risks and Biblio is not responsible for the acts or omissions of users on the Website.

You shall not (i) have any right, title or interest in the Customer Account Information (except pursuant hereto); (ii) use the Customer Account Information for any purpose other than (A) assisting customers, banks or Biblio in completing transactions via the Website, (B) supporting a loyalty or rewards program, (C) conducting a fraud control service or (D) as specifically required by law; or (iii) provide the Customer Account Information to any third party other than in connection with the foregoing or as required by law.

You acknowledge that with respect to your security procedures relating to Customer Account Information, you are, and will remain, in compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard located at https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/index.htm as the same may be amended from time to time or any successor standard thereto (the "PCI DSS"), which standard is hereby incorporated herein by this reference. The PCI DSS shall be considered a "Policy" hereunder. Without limitation, you agree to comply with the security review procedures reasonably requested by any representative or agent of the Payment Card Industry Standards Council or any member thereof with regard to routine security standards audits and in the event of any investigation of any security intrusion relating to Customer Account Information. Additionally, you will take such commercially reasonable actions and provide such assistance as may be requested in connection with such security audits or investigations. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, Biblio may immediately terminate this Agreement without notice to you in the event Biblio determines that you are not in compliance with the PCI DSS or if you fail to comply with your obligations set forth in the immediately preceding two sentences.
